Numeracy

In numeracy this term we are learning all about; position and direction and number facts.

Position

We have done lots within our theme of position, we especially liked going to the ark and giving positional instructions to our friends! We all showed a good understanding of position, and were able to write some simple positional sentences, describing where objects were in correlation to each other and could also follow written instructions to place different objects in different places. We have learnt about co-ordinates and have done some work on reading and writing them to find certain objects on a map. We have also developed an understanding of clockwise and anti-clockwise, whole, half and quarter turns.

Direction

In our work on direction, we really enjoyed dancing to the cha-cha slide! we explored moving in different directions- left, right, forwards and backwards and especially liked using the iPads to move the robots in different directions!
